Marriage, Arranged

Writer's picture: The Harbus News StaffThe Harbus News Staff
  1. What are your expectations of marriage? The role of a husband? The role of a wife?

  2. What are your short- and long-term goals in life?

  3. What is your relationship with your family like?

  4. Who are your closest friends? How long have you known them? How did you get to know them? Why are they your friends? What do you like about them?

  5. If you wrong someone, how do you apologize? How much time passes before you can forgive someone?Keep your judgment to yourself, please. There were fun questions on the list too! The idea, however, was to start with the serious questions first. Asking deep questions is a great way to get to know someone as long as both parties are honest. We wanted to get past some of the non-negotiables first instead of closing prematurely and then later realizing there was a red flag.  Once our algorithm was perfect, getting the perfect match was inevitable. It has only been a few years, but the couple is happily married. Their success story continues to bring me unbridled joy and more importantly, lucrative business. After multiple iterations, I now believe I have the perfect mantra to help you get hitched. Here are a few general tips to start you off:

  6. Cast a wide net! You never know where you’ll meet your partner. Heck - maybe see if the Harbus is up to post your biodata in the next edition!? 

  7. Think about who you are, and what is important to you. This can be tough but helps save time - both yours and your prospects’.

  8. For the onlookers - do not judge! There is something beautiful in the quest for love. Support your friends in their choices.

  9. Find a trusted advisor to keep you honest. Let us be real here, the moment you meet someone you click with, it is easy to fall hard and start weaving dreams. As things get serious, grab a trusted confidant (parent, sibling, friend) to make sure you are on the mark. 

  10. Have fun! Getting to know prospects for marriage is a great way to reflect and learn about yourself. Enjoy the journey!  If you are tired of being single and are ready to get married, please reach out to me.
